Biblical  Miracles  And  Healings { 2/29/08}


               St. Matthew chapter 8      Verses 1-16


1: When he was come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed him.
 
2: And, behold, there came a leper and worshiped him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.
{ notice here what preceded this healing} the leper first "Worshiped" Jesus, and second, "Professed" his belief that Jesus had the power to heal him.
 
3: And Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
{all it took here was one touch and five words, this happened instantaneously, that was a Miracle}
 
4: And Jesus saith unto him, See thou tell no man; but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.
 { If the LORD has healed you, go to your Doctor and get affirmation of your healing (and or) Miracle, share it with others, it will strenghten their faith,and give God the Glory,he so greatly deserves.
 
5: And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion, beseeching him,
6: And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented.
7: And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him.
8: The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed.
9: For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.
10: When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.

{This Centurion had number (one) "No" doubt of Jesus healing power, and number (two) notice that he was also very much aware, of the Deity of Jesus}
 
11: And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven.
12: But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
13: And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the selfsame hour.
{ The centurion's "complete belief and humble heart" brings about another Miracle, his servant was healed in one hour}
 
14: And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother laid, and sick of a fever.
15: And he touched her hand, and the fever left her: and she arose, and ministered unto them.{ here Peters mother in law was healed immediately,

{It does not say in the scripture, that anyone "asked" Jesus to heal her,  
Jesus saw a need and he simply took her hand and healed her instantantly, (A miracle) She immediantly got out of bed and served (ministered)to them.
 
16: When the even was come, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick:
{Jesus is no respecter of people, neither is he a respecter of any affliction, be it physical, mental (or) spiritual,as with those possessed with devils}

I think it important to clarify that a Miracle happens instantly, where as a healing takes place over a period of time, as we will explore in further scriptures,I pray the LORD bless you, open the eyes of your understanding, that he save, heal,deliver and meet your every need, Ginger.
